The only Kannada release this Sankranti

As for the director, he says that Suryakanthi will be full length commercial entertainer.

"Yes, I am following a different pattern of narration in this film. Suryakanthi focuses on providing entertainment to the viewers. I have added a lot of commercial elements in the film. I don't have any pretentions about it. I admit that the film follows a pattern that is seen in many successful blockbusters. But I can also assure you that the film will not be fully formulaic and will have its moments that will appeal to the aesthetic sense of the audience," says Chaithanya.

The film's story written by the well known writer Narayana Swamy, has all the ingredients of romance, struggle, action and family values.

But Chethan worked hard to tone his body for this action oriented film.

"I play the role of a contract killer in the film. The character needed a tough look which I had to work on. I even changed my hairstyle," he says.
